Cynthia Perkins, M.Ed. is a sobriety coach and a recovered alcoholic/drug addict with 21 years of uninterrupted sobriety. She holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in counseling and has researched the role of diet, nutrition and environmental toxins on our mental and physical health for almost two decades.

She is founder of Alternatives for Alcoholism, a website teaching her holistic recovery approach that focuses primarily on the biochemical approach to addiction with special attention to diet, nutrition and lifestyle changes to restore balance to the reward pathway and neurotransmitters, as well as a dash of traditional psychology and unorthodox spirituality to achieve craving-free and long-term sobriety.

Cynthia is also author of Get Sober Stay Sober: The Truth About Alcoholism, released in fall 2009, as well as a variety of other self-help books on Candida, sugar addiction, sexuality and chronic illness.

In addition to her work in the field of addiction, Cynthia is also a holistic health counselor with an emphasis on Candida overgrowth, environmental toxins, diet, nutrition and food sensitivities; and an adult sex educator with emphasis on preventing infidelity and keeping passion alive in the relationship.
